I don't know about that but you can dispute all old credit
information, and clean your own credit without anyone for
free. All you have to do is call up your credit report
online and if it's been over 7 years they have to remove, if
you paid it, they have to show or take it off, they are not
going to do anything because they make money off your past
bad behaviors, it is sad but it wasn't until some of the
Congressmen/women's credit reports started showing up and
they decided to clean up the credit industry. In California
we get one free report a year and I have been shocked to see
some of the stuff they put or leave on your report for over
10-15 years. Tell your girlfriend to don't panic it can be
fixed and your credit score will go from 500 to 800 like
mine.
Good Luck
